Type of Villain: Demon
Goal: To freeze the Oina tribe to death and cover the land in ice

Description
The twin devils Lechku and Nechku are a pair of Great Demons that were originally mechanical statues, but were brought to life by dark energies. They resemble owls dressed in western attire with clockwork mechanisms within their bodies. The pair work in tandem to dispatch foes, with Lechku temporarily freezing the passage of time, and Nechku impaling the frozen enemy with his cane. The pair are feared by the Oina tribe, with their names being forbidden to utter without purpose, and any pictures or paintings of the twin devils destroyed. Lechku represents the day, while Nechku represents the night, while both are interpreted to be a representation of how the people of Japan view western people.
